Now

What is this page?

It is a now page, an idea by Derek Sivers. As Derek describes it:

Besides answering the common question, “What are you up to these days?”, those who have a now page say it’s a good reminder of their priorities. By publicly showing what you are focused on now, it helps you say no to other requests.

Working on the PokyPow (formerly pc-switch)

A couple of years ago I created the pc-switch. A board for your PC to power on, off and monitor your PC with Home Assistant. I lost interest because I do not like soldering and hardware debugging and my electronics skill are not good.

Now I am full on building a product with a crowdfunding campaign:

Smart Home Things

I organized the Home Assistant Community Day in Cologne. What a fun day. I met someone from the KNX trainings center and organized a home assistant and KNX training on site. Super fun.

We are looking into giving more of these trainings in the future.
